Check PM, the total estimated cost on the wings was like $25-$30 too high...sorry about that. It has been revised.

Stay tuned....
Sweet! I appreciate the help! Let me know when they're ready and we'll get together for an install/picture gathering. Want to paint a new 968 wing too (wink, wink). Just kidding - my whole car needs paint and I'm looking for a body shop at the moment and a glass place that will reset my hatch glass - it's starting to separate

I am getting mine resprayed next week. The guy just went into business for himself (been doing body/fiber/paint work for years for one of the big local dealers) does good work and is a little slow right now (being new) and trying to build up a customer base, so his price is really good (1500...including installing the wing...add $200 for the rims). You can see it in person when the splitters are ready, and I'll get you his name and number, if you like it.

Is $1500 just paint work, or does that include any body work? I have quite a few little dings and a nice big one on the roof. I'm not looking for a show car paint job, but I would like it to be nice. I've been finding either very high-end (big money) or crap. If you don't mind, please PM me his info.

I'm in for sure on a V1 but will wait until you are ready to market it and would like to see a finished product. So far they look great. Can't wait to decapitate a squirrel.

Yes, both templates are being done together. The V1 will see a first production run followed very closely by the V2.

Ask your Goverment to stop ordering Napalm and I will have more time for these

My Government isn't ordering Napalm (openly). But apparently our Canadian government did stay at a Holiday Inn last night.

Do yourself and all of us a favor and make a profit on these. This is the type of thing that we need to see on here for a long time to come, and unless you make a profit there's no reason for you to continue to do it.

No sweat. It was getting kinda funny. It was like listening to the conversation of someone with multiple personality disorder.
